From the heart of Mexico City’s thriving music scene comes Charlie Stooks — the artistic persona of Carlos Herrera, a visionary producer, composer, and audio engineer whose genre-blending style is turning heads across the electronic and Latin music worlds. His latest release, “I Was in My Car,” is now streaming on all major music platforms, delivering a bold mix of dance pop, electro pop, house, and EDM that’s ready-made for high-energy playlists and late-night drives.
Charlie Stooks’ journey into music began early. At just 13 years old, he dove into the world of music production, captivated by the hypnotic pulse of progressive house and the iconic Pryda snare — an influence that still echoes through his tightly crafted sound design and emotional melodic choices.
His 2017 debut single “Spectacles” introduced listeners to an artist committed to meticulous detail and melodic storytelling. Since then, his style has continued to evolve, moving toward a more commercially driven interpretation of house music — one that pairs club-ready energy with sophisticated production techniques.
“I Was in My Car” is a perfect example of this sonic evolution. It’s a track that combines vibrant pop textures with electronic momentum, capturing the feeling of motion, memory, and emotional release. It’s the kind of song that makes you want to turn the volume up, roll the windows down, and let the rhythm take over.
But Carlos Herrera’s creativity doesn’t stop with electronic music. Under another project, he explores reggaeton and Latin pop, inspired by the growing reggaeton mexa movement. Here, he fuses classic reggaeton vibes with a fresh, modern aesthetic — reflecting his dedication to innovation and cultural expression.
Whether he’s crafting infectious club anthems or reinventing urban Latin sounds, Charlie Stooks is an artist with a clear vision and a restless drive to push boundaries. “I Was in My Car” is just the latest step in a journey that’s as ambitious as it is electrifying.
Add “I Was in My Car” to your playlist today and stay tuned for more genre-defying releases from Charlie Stooks — an artist redefining what it means to move to the beat of your own sound.
